“Bring the World
To the World”
Such has been the motto of Miss Maps since its beginnings.
Here are 200 photos of the world from 72 countries, each taken by Anika (Miss Maps) just for you! Each has a story attached – most stories are published in writings on this blog, others are kept only as photographs. Which are your favorites? Which speak loudest to you? I’d love to know in the comments below!
